I think I might be a little obsessed with Haworthias (featuring a few other cuties). These aren’t even all of them.

      Thank you! Yes, there’s drainage and a glass saucer. I bought it from a local plant shop—Flora Culture. I have yet to find it or a dupe with drainage online.

      its so funny, i was thinking about glass pots earlier today - i was wondering if it was possible to have glass pots w/ drainage, but only from a glassblowing perspective. i completely forgot they have other ways of mass producing glass products that would make it easier to include a hole at the bottom of the vessel, lol!

      Can I ask how do you keep your gold ones so brilliant?

      Yes, of course! I don’t know exactly how the color is so brilliant but here’s what I do: I bought them about a month ago so they’re not as plump as they will be. I keep them close to a North facing window AND under a grow light (at least 8 hrs/day) to supplement the lower amount of natural light. I’ve noticed after consistently “drowning” my haworthias when watering, they produce more color.

    For example, this photo was taken around the time I first got these plants and kept them near a North facing window without a grow light.

    This was a few months later. I had moved them away from the window to stay directly under a more intense grow light (mistake). They dried out more often before I adjusted how and when I watered them. I used to only pour a small amount of water directly on them instead of drenching the entire planter and letting it drain. There’s a noticeable lack of color and leaf size compared to the first photo.

    And this is what they look like today with bright INDIRECT light and more water.
